| No, I am paying for a service advertised at www.spamcop.net as a
| support to service (like donation) but I get something at return.
|
| Ask the person who is taking care of donations, you will figure I

| policies like "TLS only, port 583 secure login only" for "his" service.
|
| If spamcop does not get anything in return of the spamcop "hosted"
| individual mail, it should be openly said in the first page mentioning
| the service as well as it should warn that user has to find/use their
| own SMTP server.

Ilgaz,

I'm over 60 suffered a serious heart attack a good while back.  At that
point I elected not to stress over those things I could not control.  That
plan worked so well I elected not to stress over those things I can control.

JT could just have eazily 86ed the news groups.  I don't care for the forum
but don't stress over it much less make an issue of the matter.

I'm happy that we still have the news groups. So take a nod from me, relax,
go with the flow and enjoy life.
